Seeds and bird couples in your collection are worth points. Single birds only score if you have the most of their species. Each turn, players add birds to the line at the bird feeder. The bird closest to the feeder is the one that is feeding. A player can collect that feeding bird by placing a card in that line, and if the value of all the birds waiting in line to feed is greater than that of the bird currently feeding, the player will collect the feeding bird, along with collecting some seed cards. Bird cards can also be collected by playing a lower value card on the feeding line, and then taking another card from your hand and putting it into your collection. Each bird card and each seed card have one , two, or three eggs on it, so the player who has the most eggs of a specific species of birds at the end of the game will score the victory points for that particular species.  Mating pairs – exact matches of birds in your hand – score bonus points.  Beware squirrels and crows, you might have to pick them up along the way, and they will eat some of your seed cards. When the seed card pile runs down, the game ends, add up your points, and the winner becomes top of the pecking order. Tiny Towns Designed by: Peter McPhersonPublished by: Alderac Entertainment Group (2019)Players: 1 – 6Ages: 14 & upPlaying time: 45 minutes Tiny Town is a resource management game in which players are the mayor of a tiny town, deep in the woods, where you must collect raw materials to build specific types of buildings. A player’s town is represented by a 4×4 grid. As you collect a resource, you must place it on one of your squares. Place your resources in certain patterns to build certain types of buildings. When you have the resources in place in the correct pattern on your card, remove the resources and erect the building on one of those squares. Keep doing this until you have no more legal moves to make.  Each building scores victory points (VPs) in a unique way. Any squares without a building are worth -1 VP. The player with the most VP wins, and graduates from being the Mayor to the Lord and Overseer of the greatest Tiny Metropolis the forest has ever seen! Kingdoms (Koninkrijk) Designed by: Rogier J.C.
